Kimmel read Trump's crap post in front of the very audience he craved membership (and the millions watching the Oscars)...and they roared with laughter...at him, not with him...and you can bet there will be more Trump follow-up blathering posts...

I say give him all the attention he deserves...the more he's centerstage spewing his nonsensical mush-mouth bile the more repulsive he reveals himself to be

A movie about Auschwitz in no way is a "rom-com"

..whenever there's any reference to Auschwitz in a tone that is not somber, I feel revulsion..and I sense my long gone mother and father...

Mockery is one of the few things that works on Trump. It gets under his skin and drives him crazy.

he probably had someone else write it. His spelling and grammar are very poor and he knows it so when he writes a long message, he calls for help so he won’t be ridiculed again.

It's the message he wanted sent. No one else. He wouldn't have had it posted, otherwise.

heaped on their leader. It may even cost him some enthusiasm among his followers. Kimmel delivered one of the better put down lines I've heard.

... Kimmel did a fine job. Wit and humor age great tools. Always, in show business, you lost a segment of your audience when you do something like this... so hats off to Jimmy. I saw a Trumpster post Bob Hope's picture and "I long for the day when hosts were funny," after this bit. They think Gutfeied is funny. They did the same after SNL's Katie Britt bit - "long for the day when SNL was funny." Trump and his ilk should be laughed at... it's disarming.
